What are the job prospects for a Master’s in Public Health?

30 Dec

I have a BA in psychology, and chose not to continue into grad school for it. I’m more interested in getting a MPH with either a specialization in nutrition or environmental health. I’d like to know what the job prospects are for people with this degree, and how they like what they do. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Earning an master’s degree in Public Health is a great way to open new doors in the field of health care and health care administration. As the baby boomers generation ages and as the world faces new challenges from infectious diseases, you can be on the front line helping doctors, governments, non-profit organizations, and businesses to provide much-needed assistance, advice, and medical care.

    An MPH is the working degree in the field of public health, meaning most employers will not require a higher degree. Often MPH’s, especially those with behavioral (nutrition) and/or environmental focus, work for the county or state Department of Health or a non-profit org. All MPH programs accredited by the ASPH (Associaiton for Schools of Public Health, there are about 40 accredited schools now) will require you to complete one or more internships, during which you will be able to get more of a feel for which subject area you like and the kind of job you want. You may become a program coordinator or a community educator or an evaluation specialist – sometimes you will be behind a desk, other times you will be delivering a nutrition program or collecting water samples. I have an MPH and found a grant writing position which I like very much.
